Sorry my readers! Kept you all waiting for so long but what else to do? The fever was really bad. Anyway, now I'm back. This is the new chapter. Enjoy!

Reaching out for the receiver, Young Saeng picked up the call and answered it with atimid, "hello?"

"Thank God you picked up...", Young Saeng could hear Hyungjun's distraught voice on the other side of the line.

"I've been trying to get through you for over an hour. Your mobile is switched off and you were not picking up the landline."  

"Yeah, I was out." Saeng replied.

"I figured it out... Anyways, I'm at Seoul General Hospital...", then he paused for a second and made a sound half way between a sob and a groan.

"What's the matter?" Young Saeng demanded in sudden fear. "Is something wrong?"

"Mom...Mom got another attack. Her condition is very unstable. I got a call from the hospital while I was at the university. I rushed here as soon as I could." Hyungjun prompted all the details.

Young Saeng felt like crying for his mother on one hand, and also felt more tears welling up for his dear cousin Hyungjun who stayed by his mother's side when he could not.

Hyungjun's voice could still be heard, "...so that is a problem. She will arrive tomorrow and I'm at a complete loss, Hyung."

"Who will arrive? What are you talking about Hyungjun? I can't catch up with you."

"You didn't hear me? I was saying...", and the receiver was suddenly gone from his hand. Young Saeng looked up and saw HyunJoong keenly listening to whatever Hyungjun was interpreting. A while later, he placed the receiver back and straightened himself.

Saeng demanded, " Why didn't you let me finish talking? You just snatched the phone away. How can you do that?"

HyunJoong answered, "you can hear it later also. First thing first... I'll bring you medicine for cold and you'll take them and then rest."

Young Saeng defied stubbornly, " no, I need to go to the hospital. My mother needs me."

"No, your mother needs the doctors. Also, your cousin is with her, so don't worry! You need to get better, otherwise I won't allow you to visit your Mom."

"How can you take the decision? She is my Omma, after all."

"Of course she is. And I'm not barring you to see her but not now, not tonight." HyunJoong took a deep breath and spoke, "Think of your cousin. He is already worried about your Mom, now if he sees you in this condition it'll only add to his tensions. Also, there is someone coming tomorrow."

"Who? Who is coming? Hyungjun was also saying that someone is to arrive when you snatched the phone from me."

"You can deal with it in the morning. Now tell me where do you keep your medicines?" HyunJoong souded really concerned. 

The flu has taken over Saeng badly by that point and he had no strength to fight off HyunJoong and ask him to leave, so in a resigned manner he showed the kitchen cabinet. HyunJoong nodded and went off to the kitchen. A little after five minutes he came back with a glass of milk and some medications and handed all that to Saeng. He made sure that Saeng took the medicines and the milk and then took the glass from him. After that HyunJoong took him to the bedroom and tucked him under the blanket, kissed him gently on the forehead and then left the bedroom.

Before leaving HyunJoong once again addressed Saeng and said, " I'll be in the hall if you need anything. Just call me. Good night!"

Young Saeng tossed and the bed for a good thirty minutes before he got into a deep slumber. Of course all his wariness came from the lone fact that Kim HyunJoong, the man who he detests as a plague, is somwhere in his house watching over him. The fact itself was quite nerve wrecking for Saeng. But ultimately the drugs took over him and he fell asleep.

Young Saeng surfaced slowly and reluctantly to find his bedroom was full of snowy light. The events of the previous night rushed in a like a tidal wave, and he sat up abruptly. As soon as the room stopped spinning, he struggled out of bed and carried himself into the hall. Empty and quiet! That was his first realisation. Then looking at the dining table he found breakfast was laid there. Saeng figured that HyunJoong must have cooked. He was confused as why HyunJoong could not wait till he became conscious enough and then he could have left. Though, Saeng found himself quite at peace in HyunJoong's absence but still it was not the proper way to leave and that's what Saeng concluded.

After finishing his breakfast, Young Saeng started cleaning the table. That is when he got it. A note written by HyunJoong addressed to him. He wrote:

           I am leaving for the hospital to personally make sure that your mother is well and good. Your cousin called though and informed that she is out of danger but I know you still need every information. That's where I come in handy, dear. Don't worry! Have the breakfast, take your meds and rest. I'll be back within no time.                                                                                                                                                                                               HyunJoong.

A smile was threatening to creep up the corner of Young Saeng's mouth when he restrained himself forcefully. After he was done with the cleaning, Saeng picked up his mobile and started dialling Hyungjun's number. Hyungjun answered after a few rings.

"Hey! How is Omma doing? I, myself, am so sick that I couldn't turn up till now." Young Saeng hurriedly spoke.

"Hyung, Mom is fine," assured Hyungjun and then he said, "My goodness Hyung! You never told me that you were working for Kim HyunJoong and that he absolutely adores you. Hyung, he seems so smitten with you that he took care of almost everything. He shifted Mom to a private ward with superb facilities and best doctors."

"He did all these? But who is paying? We can't afford such high class treatment." Saeng sounded anxious thinking of the bills.

Just then Hyungjun assured once again, "Really hyung? Are you a pabo? Of course he knows our cond
